EG9 parts cheaper, insurance might be cheaper (3rd prty), rear seat (2x2) good excuse to keep people out of the car to keep it light, thats being biased

if you can find an eg9 that,s in good condition(body/interior)never been in any major accident,buy it.has a way better interior and the mechanicals are more or less the same as the ek4. power wise they can be modded the same way. also the eg and dc2 share the same body,so a b18c swap is plug n play. :lol: :D , 8-)

they are both great cars, its like comparing a dc2 to a dc5. they both look great, perform well but just one is newer than the other so it has the "newer car look" etc etc. i guess its what you really want.

if your budget is tight, i wouldve gone with th eg9, if you willing to wait and save more, the ek4 is a great buy.

personally i wouldve gone with the ek4

g unit u hadda consider what YOU want it for?

if u simply want a project car, buy the eg9

its cheaper, costs less to insure, and maintenance (bodywise) is cheaper

if u want daily driver/occasional racer buy the EK

its newer, more comfortable, and u can still get full comp insurance... which is a good thing... in the event of an accident u wanna be able to at least recover sum of ur money
